I'm really confused at the size of this. I was expecting one of the old 3.5" size enclosures but I think this thing is a lot smaller. Any dimensions or perhaps something for scale in another photo? I'm thinking it's about the same size as a 2.5" drive just thicker.Reply

Such an interesting combination ... I assume the use of Mini PCIe SSDs in this is to avoid the bottleneck of SATA based 2.5" drives. Although I can't tell the size from the photo, if it can hold 2.5" drives they could certainly make this specific model a lot smaller with those SSDs onboarsReply

Excuse me but, HOW COULD YOU NOT MENTION IF THIS IS BUS POWERED OR NOT? It's extremely important in a portable disk, and Lacie screwed the pooch making the first version of this product require an AC adapter. INSTANT FAIL. Could you tell us if they solved the issue or if I'll have to ignore this product, too?Reply
